New to Janenaturopath! - Genetic Profiling for Personalised Health
Scientists have known for some time that, as well as environmental and lifestyle influences, overall health and wellbeing is also determined at a cellular level.
The test itself is easily self-taken via a simple cheek swab. The results take about two weeks to return then I will go through the findings in detail with you and discuss how you can best take advantage of this wonderful insight into the real you.
Gene Expression
Though we are born with our DNA already encoded into every cell in our body, we can make choices that affect how our body responds to its external environment.
The DNA contained in our cells send ‘messages’, known as ‘gene expression’, that tells the body how to respond. The important thing to note is that gene expressions are modifiable, which means our genes are not our destiny, and DNA damage can be repaired.
Through the right profile interpretation and intervention planning, we can make the right nutritional, exercise and lifestyle choices for long-term health and wellbeing.
Your report
The test I recommend is provided by the Fitgenes laboratory in Australia via Nutrisearch here in New Zealand. You will receive a comprehensive genetic profile report that provide a lot of information around the impact of gene expression and guidance around choosing better nutritional choices that match your genes.
This is a very targeted and personalised approach to healthcare. Your report is totally unique to you.
This technology provides a fabulous guide to help establish a plan to increase your health, especially as we plan for your short, medium and long-term fitness and wellbeing.
